BREEZY WRIGHTSVILLE Is a Summer Resort With Many attractions- Col -respondent- of the VlsiloK. Atlantic Vit.w, WHimnvvii.i.K, June 28, 1894. Thin is one of the most remarkable and attractive coast resorts I hate ever seen. We associate with our coast the idea of a sandy waste and scanty shrubbery. Mere we nave at the very water's edge luxuriant grass and many such trees as are in the up country, particularly the hickory. The dense foliage of the live oak gives an added charm and greenness to the scene. Many Raleigh people have visited Wrightsville and all who have done so want to repeat the experi ence. There are two ways of reach ing here from Wilmington; one by the Sencoast railway, the other by one of the finest shell roads in this country, a road which is a never-failing source of delight to bicyclists and owners of fast horses, f r it is a thoroughfare without grades. It is twenty-four feet wide, made entirely of crushed oyster shells and reaches from the city limits to the gateway of Capt. K. W. Man ning's delightful summer resort, At lantic View, on the shore of Wrights ville sound. The railway makes the trip in 25 minutes. It runs both closed and o.i-n cars, and its line extends three miles beyond Wrightsville, passing on a trestle a mile long across the shal low sound, by the Island Beach hotel, and then across a deep arm of the sound, known-as the "banks channel," on another trestle. Then the road curves sharply to the southward and passes right down the coast on the "banks," between the sound and the ocean. For two miles the banks are fringed on the ocean front with sum mer villas. These are of all styles of architecture. Many have been built ibis season. The Carolina yacht club, the oldest of the kind in this country, has a most attractive and restful club house, where many courtesies are shown visitors. There are hotels, pa vilions, aud large bath house, in which surf bathers will find fresh water baths and other conveniences. The King's Daughters have on the beach the "Shelter of the Silver Cross," to which are iwnt each week numbers of sick children from Wilmington who are given tree entertainment in this glorious salt air and life-giving breeze. The surf bathing is fine, and there is still-water bathing on the sound side. There are many private yacht owners and July 4 there will be a regatta. It is all quite like a little Coney island. The shore of the sound here at Wrightsville is fringed for more than a mile with cosy summer houses. At one end of this long stretch is "Ken more," where from 1888 to 1891 inclu sive the State Guard had such de lightful encampments. At the other end is the new camp ground, which the city of-Wilmington gave the state, but which is not now in use. The latter ground is on a bold bluff, the highest on this coast. In 1889 the U. S. built a battery of four ten-inch mortars and two ten-inch cannon, the grim muzzlesof whichfrown atWrights- ville inlet. Four pavilions for u.se by troops were built. The great August storm of last year blew down and wrecked three of these. The place is now most lonely. On the ground lie the tent floors, decaying. . l rom the npper story of Capt. Man ning's hotel a spectacle can be seen which no other stretch of coast affords. Two inlets are in view, three miles apart. One of these is Moore's or Wrightsville inlet, the other 'Mason- boro inlet. . Rolling in at both are the white waves, or the "whit?e horses" as the children love to call them. Us ually inlets, which are openings from the sea to the sound, are far apart. At most seaside resorts there is some article of : food which becomes noted because made a specialty. Here it is the "pig fish," aud people come down from Wilmington to get a "pig fish dinner." It is indeed a most toothsome fish, and up-country cooks, no matter how expert, can never hope to set before guests Ash of such flavor, since here the fish are taken out of the big galvanized iron "coops" in which they are kept alive and served in a very few minutes. Atlantic View is in a few yards of the railway station at Wrightsville. Its bright green lawn, with hickory trees for shade, the pavilion, the neat ly painted main buildings and cottages.are all as pretty as a pic ture. Capt. Manning, the owner, is ...1.1. .1 1. - J i- ! .... t find it homelike and restful. It really makes one) almost feel selfish to be here enjoying the cool breeie, when though' arise of the people op-coon-try who are weteriug these luug, hot days. K. THE PARK HOTEL BOUGHT. ' Mr. Mace Becomes Its Owner. Thb Vimtob learns that Mr. Mace, who since January has been the man ager of the Park hotel, has purchased it from Mr. A. F. Page, its builder and owner. Improvements are to be made and it is said the hotel is to be come a winter resort. Mr. Mace is an excellent manager and popular. BY JULY FOURTH It Is Now Said Street Cars Will be Running. Today a small force of laborers, un der the direction of Mr. Will. Xixon, began the work of digging out the street railway tracks, removing the earth which has gathered on them sinco November 4. Men are at work at. the power house and car barns. Of course there is a great deal of work to be done. There will have to be new machinery, new cars, &c. BAPTIST FEMALE UNIVER SITY. Mr Bauer's Design for the Build ing Accepted. The trustees of the Baptist female university ha ve accepted the handsome design prepared by Mr. A. G. Bauer for the main building. The Vi.srroit has seen the plan. It is a striking one. The building is to cost $35,000, and will be of brick with slate roofs. The main building is 150 feet deep, with wings 75 .feet deep, the entire frontage being 180 feet. 1 here are tastefully designed towers and en trances, and the effect of the roof is fine and imposing, the style being composite. Later domitoriesareto be built at each end of the wings, but somewhat to their rear. It is the purpose to begin work this autumn. The building is to be at the uortheast corner of North Blount and East Eden ton streets. . . " . ..- A Success. The lecture at the Y. M. C. A. last evening was a decided success. Mr. P. C. Enniss is an earnest aud forci ble speaker, and those who heard him were highly entertained. The Ral eigh quartette and mandolin club greatly disappointed the audience by not appearing. Mr. Ralph Fisher, however, rendered some very sweet selections on the organ. These lec tures will be continued, and Rev. D. H. Tuttle is next on the program. A Well Known Virginian Mui -dered. Clifton Forge, Va., June 29. Spe cial F. A.Goodman, conductor on the Chesapeake and Ohio railway, thi morning shot and killed Col. H. C. Parsons, the well known owner of the Natural Bridge property. The trouble was caused by Parsons writing letters to the railroad people to have Good man removed. Parsons is a promi nent Virginia republican. The Weather Report. For North Carolina: Fair. Local forecast for Raleigh and vcinity: Saturday, fair and warm.

Webb referred to a few days ago, is more serious than was at first thought. Yesterday's Salisbury Herald con tained the following: " A telegram received from Wake county this morn ing from the father of Mr. K. W. Burt states that Mr. and Mrs. Burt were thrown from a buggy yesterday while out riding. They were not seriously hurt." Mr. Bauer, the well known archi tect, has prepared plans for two at tractive cottages which a re to be built, one for Mr. Joseph F. Ferrall and the other for Mr. Theo. W. Dobbin. Both will be on the block west of the capi- tol square and south of Hillsboro j street. .''..' I Transfer clerk 11. K. Lumsden says that the "Atlanta special" does not take mail from the drop letter box at the union station. Many people o to the depot late at night, and -'mail letters, thinking this train will take them north or south. Any letters ad dressed to persons iu Raleigh losetime by being dropped in this box. The Odd Fellows' "Triple Link Xcursion" to Norfolk, Washington and Baltimore promises to be the best trip of the year for the price. Nor folk $2.50, Washington City 6.00 (or if iu party $5.50,) Baltimore $5.50. Now these rates are low.
